D5 is working for its living.
Been hauling a trailer full of soil out of my garden for the last 4 days. About 30t so far.
0 to 60 is about 9 seconds with the trailer on (not measured on public roads).
D5 can be used as a work horse.
Dogs are happy as well.
In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

I wonder why you haul dirt with a D5 and a trailer. You spend days while a lorry would do just one run...
The money you spend on fuel .... Or are you retired and you need a passtime...
